The City Law School has created a new LLM in International Dispute Resolution, designed to equip students to work in international litigation.
The course, overseen by Professor Alan Riley, has been designed in reaction to the current economic climate, which experts predict will bring a rise in international litigation. It will include modules on international antitrust legislation, international arbitration and project finance.
Professor Riley says: “The City Law School is strongly focused on international commercial law and as such we must respond to global economic developments. Our international litigation courses will provide our students with a rounded view of theory and practice, enabling them to work on the complex cases which are sure to arise over the next year or so.”
The School has also created 15 new places on its International Commercial Law LLM programme in response to student demand. The closing date for applications to the International Commercial Law LLM is 29 September 2008. For more information visit www.city.ac.uk/law/llmprogramme/.
